Your brother opened 5C in APBF pairs on 87/3/8/J98765432 at favourable. Piet tracked with K953/A65/AKQ72/T and started wildly redoubling but opponents reached 5HX -2.

If I bid 5C, I am apt to get raised to 6 when partner has the Ace of clubs and a decent side suit. Of course, partner's side suit will not be diamonds.Lakhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16177723973206020679noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-305451761816309155.post-74148775427122485892011-12-03T03:17:02.434+13:002011-12-03T03:17:02.434+13:004clubs to me.4clubs to me.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-305451761816309155.post-35182499132896284832011-12-02T21:34:57.972+13:002011-12-02T21:34:57.972+13:00Four clubs for me.

I want a purer pre-empt (better clubs) to open at the five-level otherwise partner has no hope of judging what to do when he holds the good hand.Paul Gipsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13564960646170455536noreply@blogger.com
